Had a Daughter19 April 1905 His daughter Dorothy Clifton was born on 19 April 1905 at Derby, DBY.12,1,13 
Researchbetween 1911 and 1921 Research: After 1911, Thomas is not found with his wife (and no longer lives in her parents house with them).
In 1921 he is with a new younger "wife", Dorothea. She comes into his life between 1911 and 1921.
Though she is stated as a "wife" she informed the census, however, I can find no formal marriage until after Elizabeth Ann has died.
In 1939 Thomas and Dorothea his new lady friend are living apart due to war work.
There is an appropriate marriage in 1954 as soon as Elizabeth Ann has passed.
Thomas is not buried with his first wife (she is buried in Eastwood cenetery with her parents).
Both Thomas and new wife are scattered in Wilford Hill. 
(Enum alone) Cen-Househ*2 April 1911 The 1911 UK Census of 118 Nottingham Road, Eastwood, NTT, listed Thomas Clifton described as both were in the household of Elisha (60) & Fanny (57) Hopkin, Thomas' parents-in-law. Elisha was a house agent, on own account, born in Eastwood. Their details were as follows - Thomas Clifton, son-in-law, age 33 married 8 years, 1 child, living, railway clerk, born Greasley, NTT, Elizabeth Ann Clifton age 36, born Eastwood, NTT with their daughter, Dorothy Clifton age 5, born Derbyshire, Derby. The house had 7 rooms.12 
(Head) Cen-Househ19 June 1921 He was head of the household in the 1921 UK Census of 15 Church Street, New Lenton, NTT, as Thomas Clifton, head age 43, male, married, born Greasley, NTT assistant accountant locomotive department for Midland Railway Company, Midland Railway Derby. Enumerated with his wife Dorothea Hayes. The house had 6 rooms. Completed by D. Clifton. This liaison may have been a little "awkward" as Thomas' previous wife (she still stated she was married) still alive and living in Greasley ... only married after she had died.14 
(Present-Main-Alone) Cen-Househ*29 September 1939 He was listed at the top of the household in the 1939 UK Register of 34 King Henry's Road, Hampstead, LND, described as Clifton, Thomas, male, born 17 Jun 1881 (corrected to 1877), married, A.E.C.

(Spouse of deceased) Prob Index18 April 1955 Thomas Clifton was named as the husband of Elizabeth Ann Hopkins (deceased) on 18 April 1955 at The Probate Office, Nottingham.16 
Research*28 August 1961 Research: There is another probate and death in 1961 (in exactly the right R.D.) of as Thomas age 84 - i.e the right age. However, the Thomas Probate of 1961 does not name a "Dorothea"
as an administrator, but two other Clifton males, who (FreeBMD) have the mother "King" - so unlikely to be him.

If I went by GRO references only, I would have got the wrong one.16,1,10

Authority to administer the Estate was granted to Dorothea Hayes described as Dorothea Clifton, widow. on 2 June 1965 by The Probate Office, Nottingham. Estate valued at £618. (Note that Dorothea is Thomas' latest wife and not his daughter Dorothea Alcock).16 
ResearchApril 2965 Research: Not 100% sure this is the right guy unless he married a Dorothea after his original wife died (only one possibility in FreeBMD in Paddington Dec 1954).

Our Thomas had daughter Dorothy Allcock (name she was buried under), so unusual that she would be called Dorothea Clifton.

Had a Sonbetween 1 July 1925 and 30 September 1925 His son Walter Clifton was born between 1 July 1925 and 30 September 1925 at Heanor, DBY.7 
Researchafter 1926 Research: After Thomas's apparent death, more children have appeared. Thomas & Sarah J's children are too young to be the parents - so must be Sarah Jane's? (relationships not shown in 1939 registration).

The children are registered as Clifton's with a mother Wilmot.
Sarah J did not remarry another Clifton.
The other Clifton living with them (Walter, Thomas' father) died in 1929.

There is no suitable death (in NTT or DBY or anywhere of the right age) for a Thomas Clifton after 1925, but in 1925 there is a burial in Heanor of a 33 year old Thomas Clifton who died in Nottm General Hospital.(R.D. Nottingham).

My hypothesis is that Sarah Jane had further children and kept registering them as of the couple.

There is a possibility that another (to be identified) Clifton family member joined Sarah to have those children, otherwise we are in "turkey baster" territory ... or accept the mis-registration of the births.
For example, Frank Clifton, 8 years younger than Thomas and unmarried age 40 and living very close (with Lily Gent, his and Thomas' sister) in 63 Derby Road Heanor in 1939.

An example of one of their post 1926 birth certificates (and Thomas' death certificate) would be interesting and possibly definitive.

I don't however know who the father is of any of the post-1925 children. 
Research*26 November 1929 Research: Thomas' father Walter lived with them before he died - in 1921 census up to 1929 when he died.6,4 

Child of Thomas Peck Clifton and Sarah Jane Wilmot

Marriage*between 1 July 1913 and 30 September 1913 Thomas Peck Clifton married Sarah Jane Wilmot between 1 July 1913 and 30 September 1913 at R.D. Basford.3
